API publications necessarily address problems of a general nature. With respect to particular circumstances, local, state, and federal laws and regulations should be reviewed.
API is not undertaking to meet the duties of employers, manufacturers, or suppliers to
warn and properly train and equip their employees, and others exposed, concerning health
and safety risks and precautions, nor undertaking their obligations under local, state, or federal laws.
Information concerning safety and health risks and proper precautions with respect to particular materials and conditions should be obtained from the employer, the manufacturer or
supplier of that material, or the material safety data sheet.
Nothing contained in any API publication is to be construed as granting any right, by
implication or otherwise, for the manufacture, sale, or use of any method, apparatus, or product covered by letters patent. Neither should anything contained in the publication be construed as insuring anyone against liability for infringement of letters patent.
Generally, API standards are reviewed and revised, reaffirmed, or withdrawn at least every
five years. Sometimes a one-time extension of up to two years will be added to this review
cycle. This publication will no longer be in effect five years after its publication date as an
operative API standard or, where an extension has been granted, upon republication. Status
of the publication can be ascertained from the API Upstream Segment [telephone (202) 6828000]. A catalog of API publications and materials is published annually and updated quarterly by API, 1220 L Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20005.
This document was produced under API standardization procedures that ensure appropriate notification and participation in the developmental process and is designated as an API
standard. Questions concerning the interpretation of the content of this standard or comments and questions concerning the procedures under which this standard was developed
should be directed in writing to the general manager of the Upstream Segment, American
Petroleum Institute, 1220 L Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20005. Requests for permission
to reproduce or translate all or any part of the material published herein should also be
addressed to the general manager.
API standards are published to facilitate the broad availability of proven, sound engineering and operating practices. These standards are not intended to obviate the need for applying sound engineering judgment regarding when and where these standards should be
utilized. The formulation and publication of API standards is not intended in any way to
inhibit anyone from using any other practices.
Any manufacturer marking equipment or materials in conformance with the marking
requirements of an API standard is solely responsible for complying with all the applicable
requirements of that standard. API does not represent, warrant, or guarantee that such products do in fact conform to the applicable API standard.

FOREWORD
Specification 5L covers seamless and welded steel line pipe. It includes plain-end,
threaded-end, and belled-end pipe, as well as through-the-flowline (TFL) pipe and pipe with
ends prepared for use with special couplings.
Although the plain-end line pipe meeting this specification is primarily intended for field
makeup by circumferential welding, the manufacturer will not assume responsibility for
field welding.
The purpose of this specification is to provide standards for pipe suitable for use in conveying gas, water, and oil in both the oil and natural gas industries.
This specification is under the jurisdiction of the Committee on Standardization of Tubular Goods and includes changes to the previous edition approved by letter ballot through
June 1999. Specifications 5LS and 5LX have been incorporated into this edition of Specification 5L. The last editions of Specifications 5LS and 5LX, published in March 1982, have
been withdrawn.
Due to the large numbers of changes from the Forty-first Edition, change bars are not
included in this edition.
This standard shall become effective on the date printed on the cover but may be used voluntarily from the date of distribution.
API publications may be used by anyone desiring to do so. Every effort has been made by
the Institute to assure the accuracy and reliability of the data contained in them; however, the
Institute makes no representation, warranty, or guarantee in connection with this publication
and hereby expressly disclaims any liability or responsibility for loss or damage resulting
from its use or for the violation of any federal, state, or municipal regulation with which this
publication may conflict.
Suggested revisions are invited and should be submitted to the general manager of
the Upstream Segment, American Petroleum Institute, 1220 L Street, N.W., Washington,
D.C. 20005.

Specification for Line Pipe
1 Scope
followed by the first two digits of the specified minimum yield
strength in U.S. Customary units.
1.1 PURPOSE AND COVERAGE
1.4 DIMENSIONS
The purpose of this specification is to provide standards for
pipe suitable for use in conveying gas, water, and oil in both
the oil and natural gas industries.
This specification covers seamless and welded steel line
pipe. It includes plain-end, threaded-end, and belled-end pipe,
as well as through-the-flowline (TFL) pipe and pipe with
ends prepared for use with special couplings.
Although the plain-end line pipe meeting this specification
is primarily intended for field makeup by circumferential
welding, the manufacturer will not assume responsibility for
field welding.
--`,,`,,`,,`,,,``,`,``,,``-`-`,,`,,`,`,,`---
The sizes used herein are dimensionless designations,
which are derived from the specified outside diameter as measured in U.S. Customary units, and provide a convenient
method of referencing pipe size within the text and tables (but
not for order descriptions). Pipe sizes 23/8 and larger are
expressed as integers and fractions; pipe sizes smaller than
23/8 are expressed to three decimal places. These sizes
replace the “size designation” and the “nominal size designation” used in the previous edition of this specification. Users
of this specification who are accustomed to specifying nominal sizes rather than OD sizes are advised to familiarize
themselves with these new size designations used in this
specification, especially the usage in Tables 4, 5, and 6A.
1.2 PRODUCT SPECIFICATION LEVEL (PSL)
This specification establishes requirements for two product
specification levels (PSL 1 and PSL 2). These two PSL designations define different levels of standard technical requirements. PSL 2 has mandatory requirements for carbon
equivalent, notch toughness, maximum yield strength, and
maximum tensile strength. These and other differences are
summarized in Appendix J.
Requirements that apply to only PSL 1 or only PSL 2 are
so designated. Requirements that are not designated to a specific PSL apply to both PSL 1 and PSL 2.
The purchaser may add requirements to purchase orders
for either PSL 1 or PSL 2, as provided by the supplementary
requirements (Appendix F) and other options (4.2 and 4.3).
PSL 1 pipe can be supplied in sizes ranging from 0.405
through 80.
PSL 2 pipe can be supplied in sizes ranging from 41/2
through 80.
Dimensional requirements on threads and thread gages,
stipulations on gaging practice, gage specifications and certification, as well as instruments and methods for inspection of
threads are given in API Standard 5B and are applicable to
threaded products covered by this specification.
1.5 UNITS
U.S. Customary units are used in this specification; SI
(metric) units are shown in parentheses in the text and in
many tables. The values stated in either U.S. Customary units
or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated are not necessarily exact equivalents; therefore,
each system is to be used independently of the other, without
combining values for any specific order item.
See Appendix M for specific information about rounding
procedures and conversion factors.
1.3 GRADES
The grades (see the note) covered by this specification are
the standard Grades A25, A, B, X42, X46, X52, X56, X60,
X65, X70 and X80; and any intermediate grades (grades that
are higher than X42, intermediate to two sequential standard
grades, and agreed upon by the purchaser and manufacturer).
PSL 1 pipe can be supplied in Grades A25 through X70.
PSL 2 pipe can be supplied in Grades B through X80.
2 References
Class II (Cl II) steel is rephosphorized and probably has better threading properties than Class I (Cl I). Because Class II
(Cl II) has higher phosphorus content than Class I (Cl I), it
may be somewhat more difficult to bend.
Pipe manufactured as Grade X60 or higher shall not be
substituted for pipe ordered as Grade X52 or lower without
purchaser approval.
2.1 This specification includes by reference, either in total
or in part, the latest editions of the following API and industry
standards:
API
RP 5A3
Spec 5B
Note: The grade designations are dimensionless. Grades A and B do
not include reference to the specified minimum yield strength; however, other grade designations are composed of the letter A or X,

Notes:
1. Nothing in this specification should be interpreted as indicating a preference by the committee for any material or process or as indicating equality between the various materials or processes. In the selection of materials and processes, the purchaser has to be guided by
experience and by the service for which the pipe is intended.
2. Users of this specification should note that there is no longer a requirement for marking a product with the API monogram. The American Petroleum Institute continues to license use of the monogram on products covered by this specification, but it is administered by the
staff of the Institute separately from the specification. The policy describing use of the monogram is contained in Appendix I. No other
use of the monogram is permitted. Licensees mark products in accordance with Appendix I or Section 10, and nonlicensees mark products in accordance with Section 10.
5 Process of Manufacture and Material
5.1 PROCESS OF MANUFACTURE
Pipe furnished to this specification shall be either seamless
or welded as defined in 5.1.1, 5.1.2, and 5.1.3 and shall be
limited to the product specification levels, grades, types of
pipe, and size limitations specified in Table 1.
5.1.1 Seamless Process
The seamless process is a process of hot working steel to
form a tubular product without a welded seam. If necessary,
the hot worked tubular product may be subsequently cold finished to produce the desired shape, dimensions, and properties.
5.1.2 Welding Processes
5.1.2.1 Without Filler Metal
5.1.2.1.1 Continuous Welding
Continuous welding is a process of forming a seam by
heating the skelp in a furnace and mechanically pressing the
formed edges together wherein successive coils of skelp have
been joined together to provide a continuous flow of steel for
the welding mill. (This process is a type of butt-welding.)
5.1.2.1.2 Electric Welding
Electric welding is a process of forming a seam by electricresistance or electric-induction welding wherein the edges
to be welded are mechanically pressed together and the
COPYRIGHT 2003; American Petroleum Institute
heat for welding is generated by the resistance to flow of the
electric current.
5.1.2.1.3 Laser Welding
Laser welding is a welding process that uses a laser beam
and a keyholing technique to produce melting and coalescence of the edges to be welded. The edges may be preheated.
Shielding is obtained entirely from an externally supplied gas
or gas mixture.
5.1.2.2 With Filler Metal
5.1.2.2.1 Submerged-Arc Welding
Submerged-arc welding is a welding process that produces
coalescence of metals by heating them with an arc or arcs
between a bare metal consumable electrode or electrodes and
the work. The arc and molten metal are shielded by a blanket of
granular, fusible material on the work. Pressure is not used, and
part or all of the filler metal is obtained from the electrodes.
5.1.2.2.2 Gas Metal-Arc Welding
Gas metal-arc welding is a welding process that produces
coalescence of metals by heating them with an arc or arcs
between a continuous consumable electrode and the work.
Shielding is obtained entirely from an externally supplied gas
or gas mixture. Pressure is not used, and the filler metal is

5.1.3.4 Laser Welded Pipe
5.1.3.1 Seamless Pipe
Laser welded pipe is defined as pipe that has one longitudinal seam produced by the laser welding process defined in
5.1.2.1.3.
The weld seam and the entire heat affected zone of laser
welded pipe shall be heat treated so as to simulate a normalizing heat treatment, except that by agreement between the purchaser and manufacturer, an alternative process may be
substituted. Where such substitution is made, the manufacturer
shall demonstrate the effectiveness of the method selected,
using a procedure that is mutually agreed upon. This procedure may include, but is not necessarily limited to, hardness
testing, microstructural evaluation, or mechanical testing.
Seamless pipe is produced by the seamless process defined
in 5.1.1.
5.1.3.2 Continuous Welded Pipe
Continuous welded pipe is defined as pipe that has one longitudinal seam produced by the continuous welding process

For plain-end pipe, ew equals 0.
7.3 WALL THICKNESS
--`,,`,,`,,`,,,``,`,``,,``-`-`,,`,,`,`,,`---
Each length of pipe shall be measured for conformance to
the specified wall thickness requirements. The wall thickness
at any location shall be within the tolerances specified in Table
9, except that the weld area shall not be limited by the plus tolerance. Wall thickness measurements shall be made with a
mechanical caliper or with a properly calibrated nondestructive inspection device of appropriate accuracy. In case of dispute, the measurement determined by use of the mechanical
caliper shall govern. The mechanical caliper shall be fitted
with contact pins having circular cross sections of 1/4 in.
(6.35 mm) diameter. The end of the pin contacting the inside
surface of the pipe shall be rounded to a maximum radius of
11/2 in. (38.10 mm) for pipe of size 65/8 or larger, and to a
maximum radius of d/4 for pipe smaller than size 65/8, with a

rounded to a radius of not less than 11/2 in. (38.10 mm).
7.4 WEIGHT
Each length of pipe of size 59/16 or larger shall be weighed
separately; lengths of pipe smaller than size 59/16 shall be
weighed either individually or in convenient groups, at the
option of the manufacturer. For all sizes of pipe, the order
item weights and, where applicable, the carload weights shall
be determined. Threaded-and-coupled pipe shall be weighed
with the couplings screwed on but without thread protectors,
except for carload determinations for which proper allowance
shall be made for the weight of the thread protectors.
Threaded-and-coupled pipe may be weighed before the couplings are attached, provided that allowance is made for the
weight of the couplings.
For plain-end pipe, the weights determined as described
above shall conform to the calculated weights, within the tolerances specified in Table 10. For threaded-and-coupled pipe,
the weights determined as described above shall conform to
the calculated weights or adjusted calculated weights, within
the tolerances specified in Table 10.
Full-length calculated weights shall be determined in
accordance with the following equation:
WL = (wpe × L) + ew
where
WL = calculated weight of a piece of pipe of length L,
lb (kg),
wpe = plain-end weight per unit length rounded to the
nearest 0.01 lb/ft (0.01 kg/m),
COPYRIGHT 2003; American Petroleum Institute

The plain-end weight per unit length, wpe, shall be calculated using the following equation and rounded to the nearest
0.01 lb/ft (0.01 kg/m):
U.S. Customary unit equation (lb/ft) = wpe = 10.69 (D-t)t
SI unit equation (kg/m) = wpe = 0.024 66(D-t)t

before the couplings are attached, provided that proper allowance is made for the length of the couplings. Each length of
pipe shall be measured, except that pipe made in lengths that
are uniform within 0.1 ft (0.03 m) need not be individually
measured, provided that the accuracy of the length is verified
at least once per 4 hours per operating shift. Any pipe found
to be out of tolerance is cause for individual measurement of
all pipe back to the last, and up to the next, two sequential
pipes measured and found to be within tolerance.
The accuracy of length measuring devices for lengths of
pipe less than 100 ft (30 m) shall be ± 0.1 ft (0.03 m).

7.8.8 Hard Spots
7.8.12 Undercuts
Any hard spot having a minimum dimension greater than
2 in. (50.8 mm) in any direction and a hardness greater than
or equal to 35 HRC (327 HB) shall be rejected. The section of
pipe containing the hard spot shall be removed as a cylinder.
The surface of cold-formed welded pipe shall be examined
visually to detect irregularities in the curvature of the pipe.
When this examination fails to disclose mechanical damage
as the cause of the irregular surface but indicates that the
irregular surface may be attributed to a hard spot, the hardness and dimensions of the area shall be determined. If hardness and dimensions exceed the aforementioned rejection
criteria, the hard spot shall be removed.
Undercutting of submerged-arc or gas metal-arc welded
pipe is the reduction in thickness of the pipe wall adjacent to
the weld where it is fused to the surface of the pipe. Undercutting can best be located and measured visually.
7.8.9 Cracks, Sweats, and Leaks
All cracks, sweats, and leaks shall be considered defects.
7.8.10 Laminations (See Note)
Any lamination or inclusion extending into the face or
bevel of the pipe and having a visually determined transverse

Pipe containing such defects shall be cut back until no lamination or inclusion is greater than 1/4 in. (6.35 mm).
Any lamination in the body of the pipe exceeding both of
the following is considered a defect:
a. Greater than or equal to 3/4 in. (19.0 mm) in the minor
dimension.
b. Greater than or equal to 12 in.2 (7742 mm2) in area.
Disposition of such defects shall be in accordance with
9.7.6, Item c or d. No specific inspection by the manufacturer
is required unless the purchaser specifies special nondestructive inspection on the purchase order.
Note: A lamination is an internal metal separation creating layers
generally parallel to the surface.

Arc burns are localized points of surface melting caused by
arcing between electrode or ground and pipe surface and shall
be considered defects (see note).
Disposition of pipe containing arc burns shall be in accordance with 9.7.6, except that removal of defects by grinding
shall be subject to the following additional condition. Arc burns
may be removed by grinding, chipping, or machining. The
resulting cavity shall be thoroughly cleaned and checked for
complete removal of damaged material by etching with a 10%
solution of ammonium persulfate or a 5% solution of nital.
Note: Contact marks, defined as intermittent marks adjacent to the
weld line, resulting from the electrical contact between the electrodes supplying the welding current and the pipe surface, are
not defects.

7.8.14 Other Defects
Any imperfection having a depth greater than 121/2% of
the specified wall thickness, measured from the surface of the
pipe, shall be considered a defect.
7.9 PIPE ENDS
7.9.1 General
The pipe ends shall be plain, threaded, belled, or prepared
for special couplings, as specified on the purchase order.
Helical seam pipe shall not be threaded. The inside and outside edges of the ends of all pipe shall be free of burrs.
7.9.2 Threaded Ends (PSL 1 only)
Threaded ends shall conform to the threading, thread
inspection, and gaging requirements specified in API Standard 5B. One end of each length of threaded pipe shall be
provided with a coupling conforming to the requirements of
Section 8, in effect at the date of manufacture of each coupling (see Note 1), and the other end with thread protection
conforming to the requirements of 11.2. Couplings shall be
screwed onto the pipe handling-tight (see Note 2), except
that they shall be applied power-tight if so specified on the
purchase order. A thread compound shall be applied to
cover the full surface of either the coupling or pipe engaged
thread before making up the joint. All exposed threads shall
be coated with this thread compound. Unless otherwise
specified on the purchase order, the manufacturer may use
any thread compound that meets the performance objectives
set forth in API RP 5A3. A storage compound of distinct
color may be substituted for this thread compound on all
exposed threads. Whichever compound is used shall be
applied to a surface that is clean and reasonably free of
moisture and cutting fluids.
Notes:
1. Unless otherwise specified on the purchase order, it is not mandatory that both the pipe and coupling of each threaded and coupled
product be manufactured to the same edition of this specification.
2. Handling-tight shall be defined as sufficiently tight that the coupling cannot be removed except by using a wrench. The purpose of
making up couplings handling-tight is to facilitate removal of the
couplings for cleaning and inspecting threads and applying fresh
thread compound before laying the pipe. This procedure has been
found necessary to prevent thread leakage, especially in gas lines,
because manufacturer-applied couplings made up power-tight,
although leak-proof at the time of makeup, may not always remain
so after transportation, handling, and laying.
drawn perpendicular to the axis of the pipe, and with a root face
of 1/16 in. ± 1/32 in. (1.59 ± 0.79 mm) (see note). For seamless

pressure has been arbitrarily assigned. Where the unlisted
wall thickness is intermediate to wall thicknesses whose test
pressures have been arbitrarily assigned, the test pressure for
the intermediate wall thickness shall be equal to the test pressure specified for the next heavier wall thickness. When computed pressures are not an exact multiple of 10 psi (100 kPa),
they shall be rounded to the nearest 10 psi (100 kPa).
When the purchase order specifies a hydrostatic test pressure that will produce a hoop stress greater than 90% of the
specified minimum yield strength, by agreement between the
purchaser and the manufacturer, the hydrostatic test pressure
shall be determined in accordance with Appendix K.

9.7.3.6 ISO Wire Penetrameter
The ISO wire penetrameter shall be Fe 1/7, Fe 6/12, or Fe
10/16 in accordance with Tables 17 and 18 for the appropriate
wall thickness. When the wire penetrameter is placed across
the weld, the diameter of the wire employed shall be based on
the specified wall thickness plus the estimated thickness of
the weld reinforcement (not to exceed the maximum allowed)
at the penetrameter location. When the penetrameter is placed

Inspection
Radiological examination shall be capable of detecting weld
imperfections and defects as described in 9.7.3.10 and 9.7.3.11.
9.7.3.10 Imperfections Observed During
Radiological Inspection
The maximum acceptable size and distribution of slag
inclusion and/or gas pocket discontinuities are shown in
Tables 19 and 20 and Figures 7 and 8 (see note).
The important factors to be considered in determining
rejection or acceptance limits are size and spacing of discontinuities and the sum of the diameters in an established distance. For simplicity, the distance is established as any 6 in.
(152.4 mm) length. Discontinuities of this type usually occur
in an aligned pattern, but no distinction is made between
aligned or scattered patterns. Also, the distribution pattern
may be of assorted sizes.
Note: Unless the discontinuities are elongated, it cannot be determined with assurance whether the radiological indications represent
slag inclusions or gas pockets. Therefore, the same limits apply to all
circular-type discontinuities.

of inspecting 1/16 in. (1.6 mm) on each side of the weld line
for the entire wall thickness. Restrictions on residual magnetism in pipe are given in 9.7.7.
9.7.4.2 NDT Reference Standards
Reference standards shall have the same specified diameter
and thickness as the product being inspected and may be of
any convenient length as determined by the manufacturer.
Reference standards shall contain machined notches, one on
the inside surface and one on the outside surface, or a drilled
hole as shown in Figure 9, at the option of the manufacturer.
The notches shall be parallel to the weld seam and shall be
separated by a distance sufficient to produce two separate and
distinguishable signals. The 1/16 in. (1.6 mm) or 1/8 in.
(3.2 mm) hole shall be drilled through the wall and perpendicular to the surface of the reference standard as shown in
Figure 9 (see note).
Note: The reference standards defined above are convenient standards for calibration of nondestructive testing equipment. The
dimensions of these standards should not be construed as the minimum size imperfection detectable by such equipment.
9.7.4.3 Acceptance Limits
Any weld defect detected as a result of radiological examination shall be rejected. Disposition of the pipe containing the
defect shall be in accordance with 9.7.6.
Table 21 gives the height of acceptance limit signals produced by reference standards. An imperfection that produces
a signal greater than the acceptance limit signal given in
Table 21 shall be considered a defect unless it can be demonstrated by the manufacturer that the imperfection does not
exceed the provisions of 7.8. Alternatively, indicated imperfections in submerged-arc welds may be reinspected by film
radiological methods using 2% penetrameters, in accordance
with 9.7.3.1 through 9.7.3.12.
In addition, for gas metal-arc welds, continuous flaw signals greater than 1 in. in length, regardless of signal height,
but greater than the background signal (noise) shall be reinspected by radiological methods in accordance with 9.7.3.1
through 9.7.3.12 or by other techniques as agreed upon
between the purchaser and the manufacturer.
9.7.4 Ultrasonic and Electromagnetic Inspection
9.7.4.4 Weld Repair
9.7.4.1 Equipment
Defects in the filler-metal welds found by ultrasonic methods of inspection may be repaired by welding and reexamined nondestructively in accordance with Appendix B.
For PSL 1 pipe, defects in weld seams made without filler
metal found by ultrasonic or electromagnetic methods of
inspection may be repaired by welding and reexamined nondestructively in accordance with Appendix B, only by agreement between the purchaser and the manufacturer.
For PSL 2 pipe, defects in weld seams made without filler
metal shall not be repaired by welding.
9.7.3.11 Defects Observed During Radiological
Inspection
Cracks, lack of complete penetration, lack of complete
fusion, and discontinuities greater in size and/or distribution
than shown in Tables 19 and 20 and Figures 7 and 8, as indicated by radiological examination, shall be considered
defects. See 9.7.6 for disposition of pipe containing defects.
9.7.3.12 Disposition of Defects Observed During
Radiological Inspection
Any equipment utilizing the ultrasonic or electromagnetic
principles and capable of continuous and uninterrupted
inspection of the weld seam shall be used. The equipment
shall be checked with an applicable reference standard as
described in 9.7.4.2 at least once per 8 hours per operating
shift to demonstrate its effectiveness and the inspection procedures. The equipment shall be adjusted to produce welldefined indications when the reference standard used by the
manufacturer is scanned by the inspection unit in a manner

9.10.3 Flattening Retest
If one or both of the guided-bend specimens fail to conform to the specified requirements, the manufacturer may
elect to repeat the tests on specimens cut from two additional
lengths of pipe from the same lot. If such specimens conform
to the specified requirements, all lengths in the lot shall be
accepted, except the length initially selected for test. If any of
the retested specimens fail to pass the specified requirements,
the manufacturer may elect to test specimens cut from the
individual lengths remaining in the lot. The manufacturer
may also elect to retest any length that has failed to pass the
test by cropping back and cutting two additional specimens
from the same end. If the requirements of the original test are
met by both of these additional tests, that length shall be
acceptable. No further cropping and retesting is permitted.
Specimens for retests shall be taken in the same manner as
specified in 9.8.3.
Flattening retest provisions are as follows:
--`,,`,,`,,`,,,``,`,``,,``-`-`,,`,,`,`,,`---
a. Nonexpanded electric welded pipe in grades higher than
A25 and nonexpanded laser welded pipe smaller than 123/4,
produced in single lengths—The manufacturer may elect to
retest any failed end until the requirements are met, providing
the finished pipe is not less than 80% of its length after initial
cropping.
b. Nonexpanded electric welded pipe produced in grades
higher than A25 and nonexpanded laser-welded pipe smaller
than 123/4, produced in multiple lengths—The manufacturer
may elect to retest each end of each individual length if any
test fails. The retests for each end of each individual length
shall be made with the weld alternately at 0° and 90°.
c. Cold-expanded electric welded pipe in grades higher than
A25; all welded Grade A25 in sizes 27/8 and larger; and coldexpanded laser welded pipe smaller than size 123/4—The
manufacturer may elect to retest one end from each of two
additional lengths of the same lot. If both retests are acceptable, all lengths in the lot shall be accepted, except the
original failed length. If one or both retests fail, the manufacturer may elect to repeat the test on specimens cut from one
end of each of the remaining individual lengths in the lot.
9.10.4 Bend Retest
If the specimen fails to conform to the specified requirements, the manufacturer may elect to make retests on specimens cut from two additional lengths from the same lot. If
all retest specimens conform to the specified requirements,

9.10.6 Weld Ductility Retest
If the weld ductility test specimen representing a lot of pipe
fails to conform to the requirements of 6.2.5, the manufacturer may elect to retest two additional lengths from the same
lot. If both retested specimens conform to the specified
requirements, all the lengths in the lot shall be accepted,
except the length from which the initial specimen was taken.
If one or both of the retested specimens fail to conform to the
specified requirements, the manufacturer may elect to test
specimens cut from one end of the individual lengths remaining in the lot. Precaution shall be taken so that the specimens
can be identified with the length of pipe from which they
were cut. The manufacturer may also elect to retest any
length that has failed to pass the above test procedure by
cropping back and cutting two additional specimens from the
same end. If the weld ductility test requirements are met by
both of these additional tests, that length shall be acceptable.
No further cropping and retesting is permitted.
9.10.7 Charpy Retests
In the event that a set of Charpy test specimens fails to meet
the acceptance criteria, the manufacturer may elect to replace
the lot of material involved or alternatively to test two more
lengths from that lot. If both of the new tests meet the acceptance criteria, then all pipe in that heat, with the exception of
the original selected length, shall be considered to meet the

10.5 LENGTH
In addition to the identification markings stipulated in 10.2,
10.3, and 10.4, the length shall be marked as follows, using
feet and tenths of a foot for pipe ordered in U.S. Customary
units, or meters to two decimal places for pipe ordered in SI
units, unless a different measuring and marking format has
been agreed upon by the purchaser and the manufacturer:
a. For pipe larger than size 1.900, the length, as measured on
the finished pipe, shall be paint stenciled on the outside surface at a location convenient to the manufacturer, or by
agreement between the purchaser and the manufacturer, on
the inside surface at a convenient location.
b. For pipe of size 1.900 or smaller, the total length of pipe in
the bundle shall be marked on the tag, band, or clip.
10.6 COUPLINGS
All couplings in sizes 23/8 and larger shall be identified
with the manufacturer’s name or mark and “Spec 5L”.
For example, size 65/8 threaded-end pipe may be marked as
follows, using the value that is appropriate for the pipe outside diameter specified on the purchase order:
AB CO Spec 5B 6.625 LP
or
AB CO Spec 5B 168.3 LP
If the product is clearly marked elsewhere with the manufacturer’s identification, his name or mark, as above, may be
omitted.
10.9 THREAD CERTIFICATION
The use of the letters “Spec 5B” as provided in 10.8 shall
constitute a certification by the manufacturer that the threads
so marked comply with the requirements in API Standard 5B
but should not be construed by the purchaser as a representation that the product so marked is, in its entirety, in accordance with any API specification. Manufacturers who use the
letters “Spec 5B” for thread identification are required to have
access to properly certified API master pipe gages.
10.10 PIPE PROCESSOR MARKINGS
Pipe heat treated by a processor other than the original pipe
manufacturer shall be marked as stipulated in 10.1, 10.2,
10.3, 10.4, 10.5, 10.6, and 10.7. The processor shall remove
any marking that does not indicate the new condition of the
product as a result of heat treating (such as prior grade identity and original pipe manufacturer’s name or logo).
11 Coating and Protection
11.1 COATINGS
Cold die stamping is prohibited on all pipe with specified
wall thickness of 0.156 in. (4.0 mm) or less and all pipe of
grades higher than A25 and not subsequently heat treated,
except by agreement between the purchaser and the manufacturer and when so specified on the purchase order, pipe or plate
may be cold die stamped. The manufacturer at his option may
hot die stamp [200°F (93°C) or higher] plate or pipe, cold die
stamp plate or pipe if it is subsequently heat treated, and cold
die stamp couplings. Cold die stamping shall be done with
rounded or blunt dies. All die stamping shall be at least 1 in.
(25.4 mm) from the weld for all grades except Grade A25.
Unless otherwise specified in the purchase order, pipe shall
be supplied either uncoated (bare) or with a temporary external coating to minimize rusting in transit, at the option of the
manufacturer. Temporary coatings should be hard to the
touch and smooth, with minimum sags.
If the purchaser requires pipe to be uncoated, or to have a
temporary or special coating, the purchase order should so state.
For special coatings, the purchase order should state
whether the coating is to be applied full length, or with a
specified cutback (uncoated distance at each pipe end).
Unless otherwise specified, the manufacturer has the option
to leave the pipe ends either coated or uncoated, and the
option to apply a temporary coating to the pipe ends.
10.8 THREAD IDENTIFICATION
11.2 THREAD PROTECTORS
At the manufacturer’s option, threaded-end pipe may be
identified by stamping or stenciling the pipe adjacent to the
threaded ends, with the manufacturer’s name or mark, “Spec
5B” (to indicate the applicable threading specification), the
specified outside diameter of the pipe, and the letters “LP” (to
indicate the type of thread). The thread marking may be
applied to products that do or do not bear the API monogram.
On pipe smaller than size 23/8, the thread protectors shall be
suitable fabric wrappings or suitable metal, fiber, or plastic protectors. On pipe of sizes 23/8 and larger, the thread protectors
shall be of such design, material, and mechanical strength to
protect the thread and end of the pipe from damage under normal handling and transportation conditions. The thread protectors shall cover the full length of the thread on the pipe and

a. For both sizes of round bar specimens, 0.20 in.2 (130 mm2);
b. For full section specimens, the smaller of (i) 0.75 in.2 (485 mm2) and (ii) the cross-sectional area of the test specimen, calculated
using the specified outside diameter of the pipe and the specified wall thickness of the pipe, rounded to the nearest 0.01 in.2
(10 mm2); and
c. For strip specimens, the smaller of (i) 0.75 in.2 (485 mm2) and (ii) the cross-sectional area of the test specimen, calculated using the
specified width of the test specimen and the specified wall thickness of the pipe, rounded to the nearest 0.01 in.2 (10 mm2).
U = specified minimum ultimate tensile strength in psi (MPa).
See Appendix D for the specified minimum elongation values for various tensile specimen sizes and grades.
bMaximum yield strength for an intermediate grade shall be the maximum for the next higher listed grade.
cAll intermediate grades have a maximum ultimate tensile strength of 110,000 psi (758 MPa).
dMaximum yield strength for Grade B pipe in sizes subject to longitudinal testing is 72,000 psi (496 MPa).
eFor wall thickness greater than 0.984 inch (25.0 mm), the maximum yield strength shall be determined by agreement between the purchaser
and the manufacturer.

Note: See Table E-6B for SI unit values corresponding to the U.S. Customary unit values given in this table.
aThe calculated inside diameters are given here for information (see 7.2).
bThe test pressures given in Tables 6A, 6B, and 6C apply to Grades A25, A, B, X42, X46, X52, X56, X60, X65, X70, and X80 only. See 9.4.3 for pressures applicable to other grades.
cPipe that has this combination of specified outside diameter and specified wall thickness is special plain-end pipe; other combinations given in this table are regular plain-end pipe. Pipe that has a combination of specified outside diameter and specified wall thickness that is intermediate to the tabulated values is considered
to be special plain-end pipe if the next lower tabulated value is for special plain-end pipe; other intermediate combinations are considered to be regular plain-end
pipe. (See Table 10 for the applicable weight tolerances.)

Note: See Table E-6C for SI unit values corresponding to the U.S. Customary unit values given in this table.
aThe calculated inside diameters are given here for information (see 7.2).
bThe test pressures given in Tables 6A, 6B, and 6C apply to Grades A25, A, B, X42, X46, X52, X56, X60, X65, X70, and X80 only. See 9.4.3 for pressures applicable to other grades.
cPipe that has this combination of specified outside diameter and specified wall thickness is special plain-end pipe; other combinations given in this table are regular plain-end pipe. Pipe that has a combination of specified outside diameter and specified wall thickness that is intermediate to the tabulated values is considered
to be special plain-end pipe if the next lower tabulated value is for special plain-end pipe; other intermediate combinations are considered to be regular plain-end
pipe. (See Table 10 for the applicable weight tolerances.)

Notes:
1. Weight tolerances apply to the calculated weights for threaded-and-coupled pipe and to the tabulated or calculated weights for plain-end pipe. Where negative wall thickness tolerances smaller than
those listed in Table 9 are specified by the purchaser, the plus weight tolerance for single lengths shall
be increased to 22.5 percent less the wall thickness negative tolerance.
2. For carloads composed of pipe from more than one order item, the carload tolerances are to be
applied on an individual order item basis.
3. The tolerances for order items apply to the overall quantity of pipe shipped for the order item.

Note: See Table 6B for US Customary unit values corresponding to the SI unit values given in this table.
aThe calculated inside diameters are given here for information (see 7.2).
bThe test pressures given in Tables E-6A, E-6B, and E-6C apply to Grades A25, A, B, X42, X46, X52, X56, X60, X65, X70, and X80 only. See 9.4.3 for pressures
applicable to other grades.
c100 kPa = 1 bar.
dPipe that has this combination of specified outside diameter and specified wall thickness is special plain-end pipe; other combinations given in this table are regular plain-end pipe. Pipe that has a combination of specified outside diameter and specified wall thickness that is intermediate to the tabulated values is considered
to be special plain-end pipe if the next lower tabulated value is for special plain-end pipe; other intermediate combinations are considered to be regular plain-end
pipe. (See Table 10 for the applicable weight tolerances.)

aThe calculated inside diameters are given here for information (see 7.2).
bThe test pressures given in Tables E-6A, E-6B, and E-6C apply to Grades A25, A, B, X42, X46, X52, X56, X60, X65, X70, and X80 only.
See 9.4.3 for pressures applicable to other grades.
c100 kPa = 1 bar.
dPipe that has this combination of specified outside diameter and specified wall thickness is special plain-end pipe; other combinations given in
this table are regular plain-end pipe. Pipe that has a combination of specified outside diameter and specified wall thickness that is intermediate to
the tabulated values is considered to be special plain-end pipe if the next lower tabulated value is for special plain-end pipe; other intermediate
combinations are considered to be regular plain-end pipe. (See Table 10 for the applicable weight tolerances.)

For ultrasonic inspection, the reference standard shall contain
a machined notch as specified in Figure F-1. For electromagnetic inspection, the reference standard shall contain either a
machined notch as specified in Figure F-1 or a 1/8 in. (3.2 mm)
drilled hole (see Note 1). The notch shall be in the outer surface of the reference standard and parallel to the longitudinal
axis of the pipe or, at the option of the manufacturer, may be
oriented at such an angle as to optimize the detection of anticipated defects (see Note 2). The 1/8 in. (3.2 mm) hole shall be
drilled radially through the wall of the reference standard. The
inspection equipment shall be adjusted to produce a welldefined indication when the reference standard is scanned by

API SPECIFICATION 5L
Steel Products, as modified herein. Either or both toughness
criteria (SR5A—Shear Area or SR5B—Absorbed Energy)
may be specified under this supplementary requirement.
SR5.2 The following applies to all specified limits and
observed values to be used in connection with this supplementary requirement.
For purposes of determining conformance with these supplementary requirements, an observed value shall be rounded
to the nearest whole number in accordance with the roundingoff method of ASTM E 29, Practice for Using Significant
Digits in Test Data to Determine Performance With Specifications. Further, limiting values as specified or calculated under
this supplementary requirement shall be expressed as whole
numbers rounded, if necessary.
SR5.3 Except for flattened specimens, the requirements of
this supplementary requirement are limited to pipe sizes and
wall thicknesses from which a 1/2 size specimen may be
secured.
The specimen shall be oriented circumferentially from a
location 90° from the weld with the axis of the notch oriented
through the pipe wall thickness as shown in Figure F-3.
SR5.4 Except as limited by Item c below, any of the following Charpy V-notch specimens are permissible by agreement between the purchaser and the manufacturer.
a. Full-size specimens. Full-size specimens (10 mm by
10 mm) with or without tapered ends may be used (see note
below and Figure F-2).
b. Subsize specimens. The largest possible subsize specimen
(see Table F-1) with or without tapered ends may be used. All
dimensions other than specimen width are the same as the
full-size specimen. Selecting subsize specimens for pipe
whose size permits full-size specimens is also permissible by
agreement between the purchaser and the manufacturer.
c. Flattened specimens. When because of combinations of
diameter and wall thickness the use of 2/3 size tapered end
specimens is not practicable (see Table F-1), flattened specimens, 1/2 size conventional specimens, or 1/2 size tapered end
specimens shall be used by agreement between the purchaser
and the manufacturer. Flattened specimens may be flattened
at room temperature in the same manner as transverse tensile
strip specimens are prepared. Hot flattening, artificial aging,
or heat treatment of flattened specimens is not permitted.
The flattened specimens shall have OD and ID surfaces
machined no more than sufficient to make them parallel, or
the surfaces shall be wire brushed or cleaned without machining. The specimen width shall essentially represent the full
wall thickness of the pipe. All dimensions other than specimen width shall be the same as full-size specimens. The user
is cautioned that results of flattened specimens and full-size
or subsize specimens may not be correlated or directly compared with one another.
Note: “Tapered end specimens” are designated as “tubular impact
specimens containing original OD surface” in ASTM A 370. This
terminology is not used here because of possible confusion with the
flattened specimens permitted in this SR; flattened specimens may
also contain the original OD surface (but not curvature), since
machining of flattened specimens is not required by this SR.
SR5.5 If any Charpy V-notch test result for a heat of pipe
fails to conform to the applicable requirements of SR5A or
SR5B, the manufacturer may elect to heat treat the heat of
pipe in accordance with the requirements of 5.4, consider it to
be a new heat, test it in accordance with all requirements of
6.2, 9.3, SR5, and SR6 that are applicable to the order item,
and proceed in accordance with the applicable requirements
of this specification. After one reprocessing heat treatment,
any additional reprocessing heat treatment shall be subject to
agreement with the purchaser.
For non-heat treated pipe, any reprocessing heat treatment
shall be subject to agreement with the purchaser. For heat
treated pipe, any reprocessing with a different type of heat treatment (see 5.4) shall be subject to agreement with the purchaser.
SR5A Shear Area
SR5A.1 Three transverse specimens shall be taken from
one length of pipe from each heat supplied on the order.
SR5A.2 The specimens shall be tested at 50°F (10°C) or at
a lower temperature as specified by the purchaser. The average
shear value of the fracture appearance of the three specimens
shall not be less than 60%, and the all-heat average for each
order per diameter size and grade shall not be less than 80%.
SR5A.3 If the average of the three specimens from one
heat does not meet the requirement of 60% shear, the manufacturer may elect to repeat the tests on specimens cut from
two additional lengths of pipe from the same heat. If such
specimens conform to the specified requirements, all the
lengths in the heat shall be accepted except the length initially
selected for test. If any of the retest specimens fail to pass this
specified retest requirement, the manufacturer may elect to
test specimens cut from the individual lengths remaining in
the heat.
SR5A.4 The average shear value for a heat shall be the
average of the original three specimens if the average is 60%
or more; the combined average of the retest specimens, provided the average of each group of three specimens is 60% or
more; or, in the event individual lengths are tested, the combined average of all groups of three specimens that meet
60%. The all-heat average value is the combined average of
the average shear value for each of the heats supplied for the
order item.

and the average of the three results, shall meet the specified
absorbed energy acceptance criteria for full-size specimens.
SR5A.6 Alternatively, the manufacturer may elect to test
two or more additional lengths from one or more of the heats. In
determining the new heat average, the original test values may
be discarded if the pipe length represented is rejected or the
three or more individual values are averaged. In any case, the
new test values shall be incorporated into the value for the heat.
SR5B.4 Specimens showing material defects or defective

SR5B.1 The fracture toughness of the pipe shall be determined using Charpy V-notch impact test specimens in accordance with ASTM A 370, as modified herein, and the
requirements of SR5A.1, except that test frequency shall be
as indicated in SR5B.2. The purchaser shall specify, in whole
numbers, both the test temperature and the minimum average
absorbed energy for full-size specimens.
Specimens used for shear area determination according to
SR5A may be additionally used for the determination of
absorbed energy.
SR5B.2 Three transverse specimens representing one test
shall be taken from one length of pipe from each inspection
lot of 100 lengths per heat produced. An inspection lot shall
consist of pipe that is made to the same size and same specified wall thickness by the same process and under the same
manufacturing conditions.
SR5B.3 For acceptance, the average absorbed energy of the
three individual specimens from a length shall not be less than
the full-size value specified by the purchaser. In addition, the
lowest individual reading of the three specimens shall not be
less than 75% of the specified value. When subsize specimens
are used, the individual readings and the average of the three
readings are divided by the ratio of the specimen thickness
tested to the full-size specimen thickness and compared with
the full-size acceptance criteria. When flattened specimens are
used, each of the three individual impact energy readings shall

In the event a set of test specimens fails to meet the acceptance criteria, the manufacturer may elect to replace the lot of
material involved or alternatively to test two more lengths
from the same lot. If both of the new tests meet the acceptance criteria, then all pipe in that lot with the exception of the
original selected length shall be considered to meet the
requirement. Failure of either of the two additional tests shall
require testing of each length in the lot for acceptance.
SR5B.5 Pipe complying with the absorbed energy requirements of this supplementary requirement shall be marked to
indicate the type of test, the specified [full-size] minimum
average absorbed energy, the test temperature, and, if flattened

SR6.4 At least 80% of the heats shall exhibit a fracture
appearance shear area of 40% or more for the specified test
temperature (see note).
Note: Due to manufacturing difficulties encountered with thicker
materials, pipe manufacturers may not be able to offer pipe in all
grades that meet this requirement.
SR6.5 In the event the average value of the two specimens
from the length selected to represent the heat is less than
40%, the manufacturer may elect to establish the heat average
by testing two specimens from each of two or more additional
lengths of pipe in the heat. In establishing the new heat average, the manufacturer may elect (a) to employ the combined
average of the three tests or more; or (b) to discard the result
of the first test, reject the pipe from which it was taken, and
employ the combined average of the two or more additional
tests. Alternatively, the manufacturer may elect to test all the
pipe in the heat, in which case 80% or more of the lengths
tested and applied to the order shall exhibit an average of
40% or more shear.
SR6.6 Specimens showing material defects or defective
preparation, whether observed before or after breaking, may
be discarded, and replacements shall be considered as original specimens.

APPENDIX K—END LOAD COMPENSATION FOR HYDROSTATIC TEST PRESSURES IN
EXCESS OF 90% OF SPECIFIED MINIMUM YIELD STRENGTH (NORMATIVE)
(By agreement between the purchaser and the manufacturer, the following method may be used to determine the
hydrostatic test pressure.)
SI Unit Equation:

P 1 = 1000 ----------------------D A
----- – ------1
2t A p
K.1 As a measure to prevent distortion when testing at pressures equivalent to stresses in excess of 90% of specified minimum yield strength, the manufacturer may apply a
calculation to compensate for the forces applied to the pipe
end that produce a compressive longitudinal stress. The calculation in this appendix is based on Barlow’s equation (see
9.4.3) modified by a factor based on the Maximum Shear
Theory (see note). The calculation may be applied only when
testing in excess of 90% of the specified minimum yield
strength. In no case may the gage pressure for testing be less
than that calculated using Barlow’s equation at 90% of specified minimum yield strength.
where
A1 = internal cross-sectional area of pipe,
AP = cross-sectional area of pipe wall,
AR = cross-sectional area of ram,
P1 = hydrostatic test pressure in psi (kPa),
Note: The calculation is an approximation of the effective hoop
stress (SE), which is practical for application under mill pipe testing
conditions. Other calculations provide closer approximations of
effective hoop stress but are complex and therefore impractical for
application.
PR = internal pressure on end-sealing ram,
K.2 The test pressure calculated shall be rounded to the
nearest 10 psi (100 kPa).
D = specified outside diameter, in. (mm),
SE = effective hoop stress in psi (MPa) equal to a
percentage of the specified minimum yield
strength,
t = specified wall thickness, in. (mm).
K.3 The hydrostatic test pressure compensated for pipe end
loading shall be calculated according to the following equation:
U.S. Customary Unit Equation:
K.5 Appropriate techniques for the control of effective
hoop stress based on measurements of internal pipe and ram
pressures vary according to hydrotester system design. The
manufacturer shall provide a control technique appropriate to
his installation.
